3. From Wheelchair to Weights… Her Story of Redemption & Recovery After Being Hit by a (Literal) Truck with Jodi Evans, Personal Trainer The Kori Leigh Show

In this episode of The Kori Leigh Show, I am bringing on my first guest Jodi Evans who has an incredible redemption story of rock bottom to how God has worked in her life. Jodi is a personal trainer that helps moms use faith to fuel their fitness journey. We talk about the life-altering accidents that left her in a wheelchair, leaning on pain management, and battle with addiction. 
 
She shares the role of faith in her recovery and how she found purpose through art, crafts, and projects that led her to becoming a personal trainer. Jodi candidly shares her struggles with the legal system, addiction, and pain management, and how a choice between jail and rehab became a turning point. Her story brought me to tears, because of her resilience and transformation, culminating in her work as a fitness coach and author of a devotional cookbook, to now sharing her testimony to inspire others.
